Recap
Last issue saw the introduction of the Absolute Universe versions of Scarecrow, Deathstroke and the Robins. It ended shockingly with a major character's death that put Batman squarely in the frame for the dastardly deed.
Review with Plot Spoilers
This is another jam-packed issue of Absolute Batman and I am happy to say I am here for it. I don't think there is another comic out there right now that gives you as much bang for your buck as this series. In fact it can sometimes feel like there is a bit too much going on, like Scott Snyder is cramming in as much as he possibly can. At least it's always worth your time to give the issue a couple of reads. I do that anyway when I'm writing or making reviews, which is great when the comic is a banger but sucks with the less entertaining books.
